Inside Sleeping on the Job as Usual |
We have been fortunate to receive a lot a rain these last few weeks. Everything is greening up.
Not only did the rain bring a nice green color to our land, it brought these!! And lots of them.
Swallowtail Caterpillars! |
Thousands of them all over the ranchlet! |
They are everywhere! |
And this one is eating Rancher Roy's tender young purslane! |
We know nothing about swallowtails. It will interesting to see how many survive and become butterflies.
